Hi to all,
We have a FTP Server that basically does a number of things (unzips,
installs fonts, upgrades exes etc).
I was told that I had to be careful so that unknown users do not ftp
malicious zip files to the server.
Firstly is this possible considering my FTP Server unzips files based on a
root xml file (i.e. the xml file indicates the files to extract and where
they are found in the zip file)?
Secondly, should I build some sort of encryption on top for the zip files or
any other files that are ftp'd over?
Sham.
